Simple notes in teaching medical Statistics in a short first year course

In this simple manuscript I describe some elements of my experience in teaching medical statistics in a first year course in Medicine, Dentistry or in general in a healthcare degree course. These are usually short introductory courses of around 20 hours aimed at students who have just arrived at the University, with very different mathematical and statistical knowledge. The idea is to provide students with robust basic elements, elements which can then be taken up and developed in subsequent years of the study courses.
